I took a cold shower once and it does help your memory. It was years ago and I can still remember how cold it was. 😂

Same. Still remember the cold bath I took while hunting for scent control in mountains 2004. Fing freezing

Hahaha
It was in 2017 and in 2023 am still traumatised
Two things I've learned from this video:
1. Cold showers are great.
2. I really want to get in shape.

Jorge Hernandez AND U CAN DO THAT IF U REALLY WANT TO! I believe in u ✨
Sara Bregaj don’t need what?
Megan Panarisi to get in shape
Sara Bregaj why not. I’m trying to get in shape as I want a healthy body and healthy mind. I want to live a good long life and to do that a healthy body is important.
And thank you for showing temperatures also in Celsius.
Jonas f I thought he said the water will be 40 degrees Celsius
I was so happy went i saw that hahah
I was getting ready to convert Fº to Cº in google when I saw that haha
Yeah when he said 61° F that's sounds really hot but it's only 16°
What season was this? My shower is 28°C on full cold... Summer in South Africa!

Cold shower is like we are doing very difficult things in our life, we feel butterflies in our stomachs, your mind says: "stop it man, this is very difficult for you", but if you keep going and go ahead and finish the challenge, your mind says, "Wow, I didn't think you were so strong"
Stay hard.
Wow
Exactly
It teaches you some discipline
You motivated me bru
No cap 🧢
Stay what? 😐
The best thing is when you come out of the shower and it’s warmer instead of colder.
Ikr, a bunch of questionably smart people in the comments writing "But I'm always cold when I get out of my warm shower". Yikes.
my favorite lol it sucks though cause sometimes u sweat right after
Trending Videos that’s how u know it’s cold
My house is freezing though so it's not much warmer lol
Yeah that shit feels so weird
8 days and going strong. Going in is the worst part of my day but the feeling afterwards is the best part of my day. That’s what keeps me coming back every day.
Do you wet your hair everyday?? Thanks
SAME! the energy and freshness when you grt out is soo nice :D
Ronald Casas i take a cold shower in the morning and a hot one at night. When I have to wash my hair I do it at night. I hope to be able to wash my hair under the cold water one day but I’m not ready yet! Haha
Xander van ommen right?? I love it!
Patricia Bafalis haha yeah the cold water it’s brutal. Thanks
I have been taking cold showers for about 5 months now and I will say it has affected my mental strength GREATLY. It has pretty much erased the anxiety I used to struggle with daily and it's almost like I unlocked a new part of my brain that gives me the strength to handle situations I never thought I had the ability to. The first 5-10 seconds are still a pain to deal with but the shock is worth it and you always feel better after. I definitely recommend trying it if you struggle with anxiety.
@Elena P. you’ll get the benefits either way but I will say that if you do it at night, you’ll likely build greater resilience
I thought I was the only one who got breathless taking cold showers
Hhouth man first time I tried it I almost cried, lol
Lmao same here but once you get used it, you're good
Lmao same here but once you get used it, you're good
Definitely a breathtaking experience
@William Chambers it's not hypothermia. Your body forces you to take a deep breath to fight the cold. Hypothermia comes later.
I'm usually not very interested in the "x days challenge" videos. But somehow I really enjoy watching yours. It's very interesting to know about your observations, struggles and reflections.
Skilled filmmakers can make any boring concept interesting :'D
probably because there's more than just shock value to the video.
It's because he puts actual effort into the video ;p
I have found that sometimes the water gets “warm” at times but when water hits another part of my body it’s cold again
Yeah I feel this specially on the chest.
That may be due to vasoconstriction, where your blood vessels constrict as a response to being exposed to fairly low temperatures. The parts you feel coldest are probably the ones that haven't had this fully applied. I am no medical professional and I am just guessing
@@Degaliuss I think it has to do with the way the water hits your skin while showering. Maybe it kinda numbs that part of your body. I say this because I feel the water gets "warm" when I shower and stay in the same position for a little bit but this doesn't happen when I get into a swiming pool with cold water for example.
@@reymagnusneeto5207 It definitely isn't only due to numbness
@@reymagnusneeto5207 I agree with your point but could you kindly tell me what causes the numbness?
Man's chest is bigger than my hopes and dreams
Chest is bigger then the existential void that everything I do in life goes towards. Slowly sucking away all my desires, till I’m left with a empty vessel only capable of, doing the basic human necessities.

It has been happening like this for a long time. Even the stoics practiced "voluntary discomfort" in various ways, and this was over 2,000 years ago. Comfort is relative, but it's very real.
First world problems
But yet, every summer, we jump in that cold pool. Starting with a hesitation, a flinch, but upon being in the cold pool for a few minutes, it feels good. We feel refreshed from the heat of the sun, and our body exerts heat from our heart rate rising from swimming. Then comes another, forgotten in the moment, flinch. Getting out of the pool, back into the heat, and only feeling the breeze that graces our skin raising goose bumps and shivers. Wild.
This paragraph was a whole good vibe thanks
Lol beautiful comment
@@slim4594 you’re welcome. I’m glad it was enjoyable.
@@altonology1134 haha thanks
Are you a writer? :)
Cold showers are also better for water conservation. Because hot showers are so comfortable I end up wasting a little too much water.
Love the vibes you send out Matt. They've helped me with my videos.
and the energy it takes for the water heater to heat all that water
@@idkwhattonamethischannel2767 And the energy you get by using cold water
But didn’t he waste a ton of water when he was getting ready to jump in tho lmaoo
yung clout god lmao
My water heater is currently broken so I have no other choice and I like it.
Jon Plagens Could I ask you for a favor? It mean a lot to me.
lmao, I've been like this for like the past 5 years so cold showers are a normal thing for me. Plus the heatwave helps too.
I have to wait a whole 2 mins for my heater to do its thing and im too lazy for this. Also, its a waste of good water
Jon Plagens i’ve been through that before
Welcomet to the developing country
I do it for the skin benefits. My back acne and shoulder acne is pretty much gone. Yes it works.
Awesome. This is another reason for me to take cold showers.
aggsimalone I take lukewarm showers- cause we all know warm cleans better, but I finish off with a gradual(10 seconds) increase to cold on my hair and face. I’ve been doing it for 15 years and my skin has benefited from it for sure. I told my friend to do it and within two days his skin started clearing up, less bags on eyes on morning and much more benefits.
no way?!
Ong?
Huh so your acne is gone...I’m gonna try that because I have acne too in the shoulders
As a challenge I took cold showers for about 7 months. The most valuable thing I got from it was that I can do it, and not many CAN do it. Highly recommend it to those wanting to become more mentally tough.
You are mentally tough just for having an open mind, and listening to yourself without doubt that you are or aren’t doing something such as changing habits or taking cold water rather than hot. Not for the action, but for being able to clear your mind. Most people are bound in this illusion program they set up for themselves and always have agitated minds. Letting go is the greatest yet most challenging thing one can do. You have to literally let go of everything in your past to awaken into spirituality through the crown. ‘Let go of the persona you manifested and become the one who manifested the persona’. Get it?
After a while you get use to it and it's no longer a challenge.
Anyone can do it but most don't want to and won't do it. If someone can find a strong enough reason to do it then they will do it because anyone yes anyone can do it.
@@skywalker9770 thats usually what makes a strong mind. doing something you dont want to do. dont wanna work out? force yourself to workout. dont wanna take a cold shower? take a cold shower. people have been too accustomed in staying in there comfort zone. I too love staying in my comfort zone, but i know its bad for me.
Also, your water bill looks better.
Heating bill.... youre still using the same amount of water
@@AceMyHigh cold showers make you wayyy faster in the shower
@@AceMyHigh you've never taken cold showers. Think you're a smartass?
U mean gas bill
@@AceMyHigh I think here hot water is more expensive than cold water? heated water.
I’ve been taking cold showers for about a week now.
Not gonna lie, they always suck. Honestly, if you had told me a month ago that I would even consider taking cold showers, I would have laughed in your face.
But I get it now.
It’s not about the cold showers.
It’s about forcing myself to do things I don’t want to do. I want to be a better person but in order to grow, I’ve got to get used to putting myself in situations I don’t want to be in. As uncomfortable and ridiculous as it sounds, If I can’t force myself to do something as simple as take a cold shower, how can I expect myself to have the discipline to become the person I wanna be? It’s drastic but I wanna do it despite knowing I don’t have to.
It's the right way of thinking.
Perfect example
Preach
damn.
Pimp King it’s highly uncomfortable
Took my first cold shower after watching this. Here are the results 15 minutes later:
- I am still shivering
- my nipples can cut diamonds
- my balls have yet to descend from the inside of my body
Thank you Matt 😂
lol
This is great haha!
The balls are the worst part haha
Thank you for telling me things I never thought I wanted to know
My nipples can cut Diamonds

Man you made my day. Thx 💖
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
When you mentioned "this is the least enjoyable moment of my day" it made me think about one of the best benefits of cold showers. By doing that uncomfortable thing 1st thing in the morning, you get a hard part of the day done, which leaves you feeling more confident for the rest of the day.

Sending you virtual warm hugs!

This is so funny. Sometimes when I show I think ok, I'm all alone but at least warm water hugs me 😂😂
I laugh so much bcz this is so true lol
@@Docconut lol ive corrected it
My first 2 cold showers were TERRIBLE but during my 3rd shower, I realized something. There’s a state of mind that you have to enter and lock on to when you hop in the freezing shower. It’s basically ignoring any and every thought/feeling of panic that pops up in your mind while you’re in the shower (thoughts like “damn this is cold!”). I learned to become unemotional like a rock and pay the water no mind and the showers became super easy. After that moment of realization, I thought “Let me start using the rock state of mind (that I use in cold showers) in my day to day life” and ever since then, I’ve been wayyy calmer and not so emotional. Act like a rock! 🪨
I like your thinking, (the rock) it saves a lot of stressing. I am two days into the cold showers to try and make me sleep better.
Yea it's called grey rock method

The back and face are the absolute worst in cold showers
@@ENZOxDV9 Dude I took one this morning, couldn't feel my feet
Amen
The back was fine.. the front killed me. I saw stars after 1 minute in the cold shower. I had to form a search party to retrieve my testicles
I start warm and slowly go to cold, did the first time today. Might try beginning with cold sometime!
edit: sometimes I go all cold, but most is 80% hot and then I finish with cold! when I turn off the shower and do a 2min meditation, it's pretty good =)
I use hot water...but sometimes mom won't allow to boil water (boil cuz the water heater broke)...so I bath in cold water and its actually okay...maybe I will start again...and I actually go straight into cold water...cuz 2nd way u can feel anxious or something b4 the water hits each part of the body so I just go straight in and let the water hit all at once so I won't be anxious for each part
Naw just start off hot then switch to completely cold. You don't even need it to do it long just 10 seconds is enough

Same !💪💪
Almost the same time i've been having!! Almost a year without a single hot bath and i'm loving it, sometimes it's f**king hard but I'm not giving up, i'll keep doing this till i can it's part of my life now, i'm not even like "oh shit it's the cold bath time" anymore, it's just bath (and i'm luck to live in Brazil in a very tropical weather state, so here's never thaat cold even with the winter currently going on...)
His Patreon has the full frontal version
Welp I am now getting Patreon
Lol dying XD
As someone who has done this for just over 14 months everyday, I can attest that neither the flinch, nor the discomfort will disappear.
thank you. how cold water do u use iw ant to do this and i only use the cold shower part but jesus christ its so cold
I was gonna say, this this this this. I’ve consistently done cold showers since high school (I’m about to graduate college now). The flinch will always be there, the first ten-fifteen seconds will always be painful.
Has it changed my life? I mean, I’ve been doing it for four years. I don’t think my personality changed much since high school. Still that awkward kid that turns annoying once you get to know him. Sometimes I’m productive, but other times I’m still lazy. I’ve done some interesting things though, like asking a straight guy out and getting flat out rejected, or taking two classes at an Ivy League school that was adjacent to mine. I’ve also texted people some really mean things when I felt angry at them. Those didn’t end well. Did I become more impulsive?
What was I getting at? Oh, the cold showers thing. Nah, not too life changing. I guess my skin and hair look better, although I wouldn’t be able to tell. Idk, it makes the rest of the day feel better when you start off being extremely physically uncomfortable. Everything also feels warm after you leave it, which honestly feels great, too. I’ll let you know when I become president or something after doing these for another four years, lol.
jjsdl really enjoyed this more realistic response lol
I highly doubt these supposed theories of “discomfort exposure,” on trivial things like cold showers. Ironically, if the person that starts taking cold showers also believes they have a limited willpower reserve, this action will probably add onto resistance to follow through with other habits they’re trying to ingrain throughout their day.
I think if one were to make themselves uncomfortable, you’re better just waking up early and going for a run. Much more evidence on aerobic exercise and brain health.
jjsdl maybe its about the mindset. Every time i got out of the shower i felt fresh and like I’ve had the strength to get out of my comfort zone once again. Everything can be impacted positive on your brain if you define it like that. For the last 3 months I’ve never felt better in my life. It completely changed my perspective on things. Like i would be more productive with things and dodge procrastination as much as possible. If you are a reader and trying to decide if cold showers are really for you just do it. There is nothing to lose and always something to gain from doing something different.
Sometimes I make myself very excited or motivated to take cold showers and so I don't feel any discomfort (the adrenaline probably helps quite a bit), but on the days that I feel very unmotivated, I still have to concentrate on my breathing and after like 10 seconds, the shock goes away. I usually do it in around 40 Fahrenheit and my head starts hurting when I wash my shampoo off.
I tried this at 6:30am and it was a lot more dramatic than this guy, I was jumping around, tap dancing, I will stick with a medium shower, still wakes me up but doesn’t turn me into a drama Queen
First week in cold shower i was the same as you but then it became better
@@omarqassas7095 it woke me up but it damn near killed me, felt like I was going into hypothermia
@@Scythe_Voltage ur stronger then you think.. give it shot for week and u wont be dissapointed.. u can make it!
@@samuel22368 I was doing cold showers about 2 months ago, it lasted for 3 weeks and towards the end I could shower normally without shivering or shaking, I stopped doing it because a warm shower is relaxing before work, I wake up 45 min extra just to stand in the shower, once I get home from work the only thing I enjoy is eating dinner and sleeping idk why I typed all this I’m high
So at 4:42 I dared to pause and went straight under the shower like Matt suggested. I never swore at anyone the way I swore at Matt in the first 30 seconds under the freezing water. I called him things I didn't even think were in my vocabulary before the water temperature felt bearable haha. Now I feel so energetic and refreshed and really proud I did it. Thx Matt!

@Kathryn Mercier Right but your body adapts like you said and produces more. Also, everyone should be getting sufficient exercise. If you don't have to shower, you didn't work. (Or you like staying dirty either way). The only reason your comment has upvote is because you handed the lazy people an excuse and enabled them.
@Kathryn Mercier The exercise doesn't always have to be lifting weights. It can be light exercise too (which SHOULD be done every day).
When you live in a hot city, a shower is mandatory or else you go to bed all sweaty and greasy, not comfortable at all. I actually don't know many people who don't shower every day, we almost all do!

I've been taking exclusively cold showers for something like 2.5 years. I like the warm tingling sensation when I leave the shower. I like that I am groggy up until the water hits me, then I gasp and it feels like I am suddenly infused with life. I like that starting my morning this way makes me approach my work day like a warrior going to battle.

As a person who has taken cold shower for almost my entire life there are a few things to remember. If you have a heart condition and you have never taken a cold shower dont directly jump into it like Matt suggest. It may look "cowardly" but you can have a heart attack and I am not joking. Your body will go to a thermal shock something that ppl experience even when the move from Air conditioned rooms to outdoors. The easiest way to do it is pouring water on your feet. Your feet is sort of a temperature regulator of your body once your body accepts it's cold water you can gradually take it up from there knees.. hands... Arms.. elbows.. shoulders and then torso. Trust me that the easiest way and not cowardly at all.
There should be a health warning included in the description. Or, re-post in ALL CAPS! This is serious.
When I was in senior year in high school a girl from my generation died because she had a condition (not sure if cardiac or respiratory) and took a cold shower.
That's a good point. I couldn't find anything definite online about heart attacks & cold showers but I'd rather be safe (just put a disclaimer in the description). And I was just joking about the coward thing :)
Matt D'Avella Cold showers always keep me very awake, but my head kinda hurts when i jump in suddenly. I always go for option one.
@@mattdavella thanks for adding the warning! We know you have a good sense of humor but people sometimes have bad sense of judgement. Better safe than sorry. 👍
Lmao I take cold showers everyday not because I want but because I don't have hot water lol

hahaha but I think he mentioned in his IG that since Feb has only 28 days, he will be extending the challenge until march 2 or 3.
He did it on Feb. But ended on 2nd of March. (Feb 1-March 2) is 30 days. See 9:55 😉😁
Damn he got me 😂 smart man
Hahahahhh so true:))

Alright, where's the steam then?
Would be such a surprise
@@cristiancorjan4587 warm water wouldn't create steam
@@SpiritEdgeTM I guess you never took hot showers coz there would be steam. But if the temp has been adjusted to lukewarm then def no steam
@@bonbonvrock84 He obviously said warm tho
Me: Ughhhh I don’t wanna get in the showerrrrrrr
Also me: stays in the shower for 5 years once I get in
Your comparison between the cold showers and life is making me feel like something so small, taking the cold shower, can have a tremendous impact on my life as a whole. You take something so simple and relate it to other much more meaningful things and for that, I love your videos.
Ps: "The Flinch" is totally real. It's that anxiety that is built inside of us as humans that arises when difficulty arises, but pushing through it can make anyone stronger. The cold shower is a beautiful example of this.
I took cold showers everyday for 16 years. Came to the U.S. and learned there was something called a “hot shower”. So much for advancement.
You got that right, respect your honesty too. Seems like everything is a new find in 2019. Most of the trendy stuff, has been around forever. Us dinosaurs and others know that!
Jack Johnson I guess the real human heroes were the ‘dinosaurs’.
Where were u?
Derick Shalo sameee
Totally agree man! These millenials are just fucking batshit stupid. It's all exciting and very easy to do something knowing you have options (the hot water tap), but the true test is adapting to a situation where that easy option doesn't exist and you are forced to accept it.
Cold showers make me feel clean...like I'm purifying myself ❄🌊💧
That’s how I feel about hot showers. If my skin doesn’t feel like it’s going to melt off, I’m not clean. 😂
Brooke B Hot showers,especially for long periods of time,are proven to be unhealthy since they dry out your skin and take away healthy bacteria.It can even weaken your immune system.
@@malacki6554
I completely agree...it ages you.
BlackRadiance A cold shower is good for you, it helps your blood circulation, but a freezing cold bath can shock you.
@@cyphvirtu how cold would the water have to be to be unhealthy?
AWESOME. Love the entire concept of preparing yourself for the flinch in the real world. This reminded me of the Stoic philosophy of the obstacle being the way. There is so much reward in doing difficult things, rather than always looking for an easier way. Changes your entire outlook on life. Makes you tougher and more compassionate at the same time. I have survived and even thrived overseas in really difficult situations because I knew how to get my mind in the right place. You are a great example to others.
I thought for a second you will be spending 30 days in a cold shower

Me too
Only for a second

Been taking cold showers for almost three months, it’s helped me to do something that I’ve always wanted to do and that is to walk into the cold Atlantic sea for a swim without any huffing and puffing. I now do this on a regular basis and I love it!!! Still cold showering too.

He doesn't have enough motivation to continu on his own
Joel Coll don’t get it, cold showers are the future
Exactly
It's February...he chose 28 days instead.
47 if you actually look at the calendar you can see that he extended it 2 days to make up for it, he said “30 days”, not “for the month of February”
*Who else could barely breathe in the cold shower?*
The Offical Mega Oof I think that’s a panic attack
Yup
Cold showers instantly slow your body down. Including breathing so its not a surprise. XD
It could be because your shower is enclosed.
If felt like I was going to puke
I'm African and I've done cold showers since I was a kid. I used to cry as a kid and would get whooped by my mom. Had no choice. It's normal for me now. Little to no flinch ...
Wow here is your price
Yeah. The naturally hot climate in Africa helps a lot, although I'm Brazilian and also share the same hot climate and have never tried this.
I’m Nigerian and it’s always cold water haha. Flinch? What’s that?

@@SalawuIbrahim Flinch is a small movement
I've been taking cold showers for a solid year now since i started my fitness journey and i've felt soo much improvement over the time, i definitely noticed i can endure winters alot better and it's improved me mentally and physically as well.
@Elena P. Everyday i take strict cold showers, even after work and before the gym i'll usually take a cold shower and head out.

Why do I take cold showers? That's an interesting question and one I'd love to have a clear answer for. I don't know why I put myself through all of this, and trust me - I'm asking myself this question
every time I'm about to do it.
But logic is not why I do it. I can't logically justify this action of submerging myself in freezing cold water every single day, day by day.
All I know is that the minute cold water hits my body the whole world goes quiet.
There's nothing but
me and water. Just a cold symphony of hateful water hitting my body in hopes taking control over me - and me trying to accept it. Be comfortable with it. It's a dance.
Often I find myself laughing without a reason -- I guess that's just my unconcious way of trying to release the pain.
See, all of my inner thoughts dissapear, and I feel nothing but the cold water. All that's going through my mind is "breath".
Funnily enough, I feel
this way even before I turn on the water. My heart's racing and I'm trying to find a way to justify not taking a cold shower. Maybe it has no benefits at all right? Or maybe life's too short and we shouldn't do things we don't enjoy, let there be warm showers. Right?
I say no to these thoughts. Stupid thoughts that always make sense when you're scare... when you're trying to find an easy way out! Now step in the shower, turn it on and let the 5 minute journey begin.
So let's say you did it. You said fuck you cold water, you can't possibly hurt me. I've been through worse. You feel like a fucking hero. Not only did you beat the cold water today, but you will do it
tomorrow, and the day after that for the next couple of months. It won't become a habit that easily, don't get me wrong. But each day you will be stronger and stronger... stronger than the scary cold water you've
been so afraid of.
Soon you'll realize it's not about the cold showers at all. It never was.
It's about taking action -- doing something you're afraid of every single day, day by day. It scares you? Good, now do it. Next time it won't be as scary and -- if you keep
taking cold showers -- that business idea you had won't sound as stupid anymore. Try it. That cute girl you noticed on the street won't look like she's out to get you. Go get her. You've been through worse.
I'm not saying your life will change in a week, nor will your health improve in a major way -- it probably won't. Your mindset will. You will start noticing the good things.
The small things that makes us who we are. The small things you might miss if it wasn't for the cold showers...
i took cold showers cuz when i was in my home country there'd be no warm water and id just endure it. it isnt as hard as people really react it to be. It stings but it gets fine after
that's great thinking that's how I feel...
Affiliate Marketing Beast I can’t believe I just read all that .... and I don’t even like reading
Why am I crying
Nice bro
You just sparked something in my mind
Imma Start doing this
I do have one more way, the way I do it
I just take handful of water and splash it over my body for 3 times, after that I get directly into the shower.
Splashing water 3 times does:
1. Diverts my mind from the fear of cold water.
2. Makes me more confident about doing this.
3. Makes me get ready before going into.
I know it might be dumbest way to do so, but it's all about tricking your mind to do tough things like these.
I would like to thank Matt for bringing up this video.
I was having cold showers all the time! just because my home had problems with heating ahaha
Ue bella Marcè
Same! It sucks during winter when your house is already cold lol

Just a quick update guys im still walking one more week to go and ive completed it wish me luck!
Ok, I just tried it. Turned on the cold AF water, jumped under it, my muscles tensed up, now my neck feels like it has been fused with bricks... Felt nice afterwards though, except you know, my neck.
When showering cold one should try to relax and breath calmly.
@@jimihenrik11 Yeah ez pz lemon squeezy
Dennisbaily why did you make the water that cold?
Dennisbaily 😂 a flinch hurt your neck Bro, you need more than a cold shower to help
My personal strat for cold showers is to let the cold water hit my feet legs and lower body for a few seconds then put my head and body under, works every time
Works better to submit to the cold slowly rather than rush into it. That’s the idea you’re referring to right?
But he said that's the coward way
@@Etrehumain123 Matt like the drama…he says #2 is to start with the head and then go to the rest of the body (also coward) but the back is the worst part because we have so many nerves there.
I think starting at the feet would be easier. And who cares if someone thinks you’re a coward?😂 go for it!
Mr beast challenge spend 30 days in a cold shower lol
